The first launch of FMap/FAGPS application

When you first run the application setup wizard starts automatically.
It enables you to setup language and other display options, create a new user or enter data already held an account.

If you need to create a new account, please enter your user name and password.
The account let you start using FAGPS/FMap system, but full activation via the
http://fagps.forann.eu should be done afterwards.

Note: One user can have only one test account, if you try to create a second you receive error message.

If you already have an account system will ask you for your
username and password and then verify these information.

By default the internal GPS is setup. If you want to use other source
of location go to Menu/Settings/GPS. In the list of available port
(Bluetooth, serial or internal - depending on your phone model) you
should select appropriate interface. Then, save the changed
configuration. In the case of choosing Bluetooth you should search for
the appropriate device by selecting Bluetooth option on main list.

In this case the application starts to search for available devices and
then you should choose one device from list. Sometimes GPS device first
must be paired. In the case of problems with the connection, make sure
whether other device/services do not use the Bluetooth connection. If
so, be sure to close the application using this service.

Note! To save the new settings you must use Save command.

amount of data sent/received in current session

The main window - the Internet connection status

The circle in the right bottom reflects the Internet connection status:

green - communication with the database correct (HTTP Status: OK)

red - login error, check username/password

yellow - communication is down, after certain time the application will try to reconnect

In the middle of the circle from time to time, you see a dot, which means the transmission of data package.
If the color is white there is no error, red means errors during package transmission.

The main window - the GPS status

The square color in the right bottom reflects the GPS status:

green - connection to the GPS and signal from the satellites are OK (Status:OK)

red - no connection, the program will try to reconnect from time to time(No Connection)

yellow - no signal from the satellite (No Signal)

pink - an attempt to reconnect (Reconnect)

gray - connection is blocked (Stopped)

blue - connection to GPS is hang-up (Hang-up), after a while it will attempt to reconnect

In the middle of the square there is a letter denoting what kind of
positioning device is currently active

number - external GPS device, the number means the number of
satellites used for positioning

G -
CELL ID is used to evaluate current position
(option only available in some phones such as SE K550i)

I -
internal GPS or other device connected through the Location API

L - position prompted by choosing a specific location / point of reference

N -
lack of location data source

The friends' location and reference points screen

You can change between screens using the arrow keys (left, right) or 1,2,3 keys or left/right gesture.
For each friend (user, who gave us the right to see their position) and reference points we can see:

name of the associated user or point and user, which it defined

last distance

how long ago the entry has been updated

last speed

last altitude over the sea level

blue arrow shows the direction to the point or user

Note: To determine the direction you should moving straight, while the phone should be oriented towards moving direction.

The map screen (only in FMap)

Buttons descriptions

Open main menu

change back light(short touch) or screen setting (long touch)

Change panel/map screen.

Open maps form to choose maps and edit maps list.

Zoom in if more detailed map is available in atlas (offline map) or map server; magnify (long touch)

Menu

Lock Key

It allows you to lock the
phone keypad without leaving the program. In this case only those
features that are not "critical" (keys
left, right, 1,2,3) remain active.

Position (in FMap map screen)

Command used to define position map facilities:

Center at - where map will be centered

Go to - destination point

Add waypoint - add waypoint at cursor position

Manage waypoints - Edit/delete/goto current waypoint list

Stop/Start

Stop or Start GPS/HTTP connection.

Track...

Pause/Update current track. Create new one.

HTTP...

Restart/Block server connections, settings its parameters or Send All points waiting for sending.

Maps../Change...(only FMap in map view)

In map view user can choose different maps. On list there is online (Open Street, Yahoo) and offline maps
(preloaded Open Street or added by user).
Using this form user can add/hide/show/change maps more information is in
Manage Maps sections.

Bluetooth - the choice of a Bluetooth device (in some phones, it must first be paired)

Stream - the stream url used to get NMEA positioning messages

Save Mode - the battery care mode - GPS is activated only for time of getting position

Calc. speed/course locally -turn on using last position to calculate speed/course (useful for
same pure location devices ex. SE C702 internal GPS)

Server - enable of Bluetooth (available only in certain Bluetooth
phones) or URL server and then the phone becomes a data transmitter for GPS information, which
can be used in the computer or another phone (depending on model) or applications

Gestures

User can choose map from predefined online maps and preloaded offline map. Program support Trekbuddy map/atlas format.
User can add offline map/atlas from
internal or external storage by choosing Add command and find out cr.tar/cr.tba file for atlas or name.map/name.tar
for single map.

All map definition is saved in maps.xml in root path folder
file so advance use can add online maps manually by editing this file.

To activate the FMap on other phone just sent SMS starting with text
fmap.eu or fmap. If FMap app is installed and awoke SMS option is on the app
will be activated in the background and start server connection to send
you position information.
After start the app you can check current position of the phone on
fmap.eu service. Of course you need to have right to see this phone
location. That is why it is not possible to see you position by unknown
people, first you must agree for such possibility. By default SMS
services are active. The settings you can check in menu/settings/other.

There are a few other SMS command which you can use to remote control the phone.
All message must start with fmap.eu text or fmap and than there can be some commands separated
by space. The possible command:

TurnOn or awoke - turn on the FMap

TurnOff - turn off the app

UnMute - unmute sound and play aloud ringing signal so you can find out phone whether it is muted

ScreenOn - turn on screen to find phone using screen back light (the function is working for the most phones)

In advance of the FMap SMS service the received message is shown on
screen for a 10s time so you do not need to use the message center to
read them. If you want to hide the message just touch it.
